    Default The Geese on Our Pond Thread Painting
    My daughter took this photo of the geese on our pond. I decided I wanted to give thread painting a try, and this is the result. I do want to thank Mamia and Grandmajuki on this board for their input on how to do the thread painting as I had never tackled it before. Once I got started it was quite fun!! The geese are shaded with just different shades of grays and blacks. On the water I did use some Derwent Inktense paint/ pencils to get the right effect.

    ​Gorgeous! Are the geese painted on or photo transfer?
